"How did I get on this path?"

I think it is really cool when in your life journey God places in front of you the path to your dreams. Let me start from the beginning...

A few months after moving to Dallas I began to lead a life that was not Godly in nature. I am not going to go into detail, but to make a long story short I spent about a 6 months down that path, woke up one morning and asked myself "How did I get on this path?" I think this is an important question to ask yourself when you find yourself in a situation like I did. It's important to know what the first "mishap" (or sin if you like) was that led you away from your God chosen path onto a worldly path inorder to keep it from happening again. After months of analyzing and reevaluating what my goals were and what God's purpose for me is I was headed back on the right path. I say all of that to say this...

It has been a long time dream of mine to work at the Olympics as a physical therapist. For an assignment I had to visit a clinic where a PT was working out of the ordinary and then read an article about another setting. Well, the article that was the 3rd in the notebook the professor had provided was about PTs working at the Olympics. I had not forgotten that this was a dream I had, but more had thought about how undeserving I am to have this dream fulfilled. This article went into great detail about who to contact if interested, the training schedule, etc. and therefore is God reaffirming that "He will give me the desires of my heart" however pushed to the back burner or neglected it may be. It's awesome to know that I am in favor with God and that He has plans to use me and to incorporate my dreams in the path that He has chosen for me. Isn't God's forgiveness awesome!!
